0 on Catwoman #77 reviewSo this arc of Catwoman has been going on for so long that we have our third artist on this title (please welcome Danilo Beyruth). And yes, someone might argue that all of these issues have consisted of multiple two-part mini-arcs with separate names. To that I would say, I can reheat leftover pizza from…
Red Hood will soon be getting a new ongoing series written by Gretchen Felker-Martin (Manhunt, Cuckoo) with art by Jeff Spokes (Jenny Sparks). Coming this September, Red Hood will be both rated for mature readers (17+) and set in DC's main continuity. The story will see Jason Todd teaming up with Huntress Helena Bertinelli to…
Welcome back to Upcoming Comics! Some of you may be disappointed to learn that I infiltrated the DC Comics offices to delay the next few issues of Batman. I had a lot of stuff going on those weekends and didn't feel like writing a review for H2SH, so I made it that Batman #161 wouldn't…

Pareidolia: the human psychological tendencies to see patterns and recognizable forms among random objects or stimuli. It’s seeing a shocked face in an electrical outlet. An animal in the clouds. A hunter among the stars. Or a killer smile in the ring pattern of moisture left on a surface by a glass of water. Thomas…
sigh Let’s just get this over with. DC vs Vampires: World War V #10 hits a new low. Like an all-time series low. Like it is so disappointing at this point that I’m forgoing the bit I’ve been doing with the series as my partner in a toxic relationship because this thing deserves a proper…
The critically-acclaimed duo of writer Jeff Lemire and artist Dustin Nguyen reunite for the second entry of their Robin & Batman series. This new three-issue miniseries focuses on the second Robin, Jason Todd. Will Robin & Batman: Jason Todd be able to maintain the quality of the predecessor? Let’s get into it with my thoughts…
With the horrors of Ark M revealed, Batman launches a crusade to put a stop to it and save his missing friend. The bulk of the issue is centered on Bruce's search for Waylon, though "investigation" would be a strong word. Given the danger that Waylon is in, Bruce takes a far more physical approach…
Welcome back to Upcoming Comics! According to sales data, the Absolute line is absolutely crushing it for DC pretty much across the board. I'm sure they're really happy about that. However, there's potentially a downside to that story in that a number of the "normal" DC titles have been falling at the same time. Now…

Alright folks, let's do this one more time. When I started writing for this site, one of the first series I reviewed was the original JL vs G vs K, starting part way through at #6. I remember being very disappointed in it, and even more surprised that it was due for a sequel. Now, the…
Oh boy! Here’s the moment where I really wish I had managed to catch up on this series! There’s a lot of lore that I’m completely in the dark about and I feel as lost as our characters running away in the forest. Time for me to read up for the next review but while…
Big Barda has been taken hostage and could possibly be the Birds of Prey’s newest enemy. The heroines left in the team are trying to retrace Barda’s steps and figure out how to rescue her but they’re in for a rough surprise! So I made the mistake of looking at the viewer statistics of these…
DC Pride 2025 has a very ambitious multi universe storyline that encompasses a looooot of different writers, artists and characters. There’s also a separate story attached at the end where a trans person shares her personal story throughout her life at DC and within a country that inhabits increasingly intense hatred towards people like her.…
Welcome back to Upcoming Comics! This week the baby Robins who had been nesting on my back deck flew away. I'd been watching their progress tirelessly ever since the mama bird started building the nest a few weeks ago. Now that they're gone I'll need to stop spamming my friends with update pictures and find…

This, dear reader, is my 14th issue since beginning to cover Harley Quinn here on Batman News. 15 if you count the 2024 annual. There’s a tradition in my home when you reach 14 or possibly 15 of anything. That tradition is you just do what you regularly do and don’t really mention the 14/15…
Jackson and I continue our joint review of the “We Are Yesterday” crossover event between our titles, with this issue being Part 5. As usual, my comments will be in purple, while Jackson’s comments will be in blue. One of the first things that I did after reading this issue was check whether or not…
